Da Rat's Bikes

DAGAZ

In each life there comes at least one moment which, if recognized and seized, transforms the course of that life forever. Rely, therefore, on radical trust even though the moment may call for you to leap empty-handed into the void.

Damnedsterdam

Leave your soul at the door, to get it back be a whore! Take Amsterdam’s infamous Red Light District, submerge it into the brimstone oceans of hell and you have the Damnedsterdam lounge with entertainment, drinks, crafts and our very own brothel window.

Dancing Waves

The place where you can find costumes if you forgot to bring yours, and partake in Shamanic readings by a trained and experienced Shamanic counselor. Next door to and associated with the folks at Cafe on the Nile.

Dead Sea

Happy-go-lucky and especially whacky sailors on the ship of fools cavort and croon through day/night, port to port, anchor in harbor santurary, and back again over THE DEAD SEA, enjoying the journey that melts into a dream.

Department of Built Exceptions

The Black Rock City Department of Built Exceptions (DBE) is a public service agency that conducts random and scheduled building and vehicle inspections, and whose mission it is to promote the creative act of building; with sensitivity to the environment; participation; and ingenuity. Our inspectors give ratings on triplicate forms and are influenced by bribes through an interactive process. You Build It – We Inspect It!

Department of Tethered Aviation

Dismal

Disorient

Disorient is a circular spaceship that uses mylar, 3D graphics, sequenced light, the sand of the playa and large scale video projections on domes and inflatable structures as means of transportation. Come to Disorient my child and relearn to navigate in our soothing liquid spaces.

Dissipation Nation

Dissipation Nation hopes everyone that happens into our village that they feel like they just have attended one of the coolest family reunions. We are proud to announce the 2nd Annual Paper, Rock, Scissors tournament. Prizes will be awarded to the winner.

Docks of Delirium

Dragon Alley

What fate awaits those who venture off the edge of the map to There be dragons here? Surely adventures and new experiences are just the beginnings. Dragon Alley welcomes you with a 30 foot long suspended beast hovering above the alley. Mirrored walls on either side reflect participants as well as the bright eyes and innards of the beast. Adventures who dare the alley will be rewarded with two possibilities: a hidden tunnel to a musical chill space, or — if they choose wrong — a scary ride into the red stomach of the beast!

Dreams to Reality

Drift Catalyst

Drift Catalyst challenges reality and opens minds – a place where you might get your soul ripped from your chest, only to become a more whole and beautiful person. A freely-evolving exploration of eclectic sound and radical experimental performance, we have fire theatre, a crafting Playshop, live music, the Absentia Abyss sanctuary, mind machines, light Beacons, unusual DJs, and Skeito bata skat.
